The Czech Republic

NO! NO! NOTOTRIOUS!

It's his "thing," the way mine is being insufferably self-referential

Whenever KOAB posts just an ellipsis, I imagine it being a cold Lex Luger stare.

Rocking a look??!?

It's the plastic cup for me.

I could act like I'm better than everyone at everything. That'd be a new trend for message boards

All I ever wanted to do was be in a rock n roll band. Or rather, a rock band with jazz and classical influences sprinkled about.

The name reminds me too much of My Bloody Valentine, though I'm sure the derivative nature of the name was intended.

Final Fantasy VI and Donkey Kong Country 2 should win everything.

I thought brothers didn't do that.

Even though the Republicans are suckin' it up all over the place, the Democrats inherently cannot be better. The GOP can be salvaged, it's a matter of phasing out neoconservatism and the Bush cabal. Harriet Miers was my breaking point as it pertains to Bush cronyism, incidentally. In case anyone was wondering.

Yes. The fact that absolutely despicable scum such as Jeffrey Loria and Jerry Reinsdorf are walking around with World Series rings are living proof that even the worst owned teams can win titles (this is not an attack on the White Sox's management). The 2003 SF Giants managed to win 100 games despite giving Neifi Perez over 300 at bats. The Cubs can compete and win if they fill some holes in their lineup. Anything Dusty did to derail the team pales in comparison to the black hole of center field, where Corey Patterson compiled a nifty .215/.254/.348 line. The rest of the outfield was fairly poor as well. Replacing Todd Hollandsworth with Brian Giles could easily be worth five wins on its own. And getting a center fielder with a minimum of ability would help as well. Talent is much more a factor than management. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> We won't get Giles, St. Louis will. If Cesar Izturis is injured for a long time, the Dodgers are going to sign Nomar, where he will be injured for a long time. Furcal will go to the Mets, Braves, or CF with the Yankees now, I guess. Burnitz is gone and might retire, so as of now we have Murton-Patterson-Grieve, I think. Kill me

I know I wouldn't give up more than a bag of baseballs for for Wade Miller. Guy makes Kerry Wood look durable.

Do the Cubs have any hope of succeeding in spite of their manager, his coaching philosophy, and our front office?

He'd get a C level prospect at best. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not while there are GMs like Omar Minaya still in baseball. There are still some GMs that are willing to throw prospects away for "names". <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Preferably names of Spanish descent, in his case

I liked Rainbow Wig Dames

Don't make my eyeliner run down my face

I don't add enough content to this board, they tell me. I've been called emo, gay, and possibly even emo-gay. I am very e-unhappy about this. What can I do to contribute more to TSM?

Holy shit. I just remembered that Wade Miller is theoretically a Red Sock.

So when do we rename this folder "Frivolous Terrell Owens Bullshit"

Steve Nash dresses like I do, kinda

I think I've figured out the Eddie Winslow formula. You start with some nebulous insult, usually gay-related, and just keep going off on tangents each time. STEP 1. Identify the poster. "Hey, MikeSC!" STEP 2. Homophobic slur based on name. "Yeah, you're SC all right, SC as in suckin' cock." STEP 3. Build off first homophobic slur, incorporating ethnic slur. "You love suckin' cock with all the big black-ass niggas you're afraid to bring home to mom." STEP 4. Build off homo-ethnic slur by incorporating own supposed masculinity. "If you ever try suckin' my big black dick I rip your jaw off motherfucker." STEP 5. Disparage a sports team the poster likes. "Yeah you like the Atlanta Falcons boy? They suck!" STEP 6. Go into a homophobic slur based off sports team. "Yeah you like Michael Vick boy? You like Vick's dick?" STEP 7. Wish for poster to gt an STD. "Maybe Ron Mexico can give you herpes too." STEP 8. Remind everyone you are portraying an angry black guy. "Motherfucker I'ma kick yo azz so hard you be seein' stars all up in this bitch. STEP 9. Repeat steps 2-8 over and over and fucking over STEP 10. Sum it all up. "Yeah that's right gay ass honky boy cocksuckin' muthafucka I'ma run you down in mah escalade. bring it bitch"

I'm not certain it ever did.
